Makes sense, probably the most boring game of the season. So playing it last will no doubt send people to sleep

The fact it was a United vs Liverpool derby and there’s so few posts about it tells how boring it was!

Sakho still trying stupid back heels in his 6 yard box
Best player in the League on current form and best passer in the League - he always plays the right pass and it's always inch perfect.
Can't disagree, the assists for the goals yesterday were perfect and if he means the reverse pass for Sane (can't remember the other City player that was in the vicinity) that is just unbelievable.
BBC summing up Rooney perfectly:
It doesn't matter where you play him he just gets sucked towards the ball to play pointless passes that achieve nothing, he needs to watch some videos of De Bruyne ripping defences apart with brilliant passes.

Surprisingly playing the same formation and players in the wrong positions hasn't worked once again.
Thankfully I won't be able to watch the 2nd half.

Rooney 1-1 penalty.
Hero status and a permanent place in the team for the season now guaranteed

Is it just me (which it may be as I have a vested interest ) but didn't Long kick the ball away then he was hit?
Not sure how it's a penalty he didn't have control of the ball or anything.

Was probably a bit of a soft one but that was far from the worst of the decision making from the referee today, Newcastle could have finished that game with 9 men on another dayIs it just me (which it may be as I have a vested interest

9 men is a little too far but I was baffled why Yedders wasn’t sent off.
Gutted we didn’t hang on but considering our recent form away at St Mary’s I’ll take that all day. Rafa has us looking a solid outfit with little to no investment, and as lame and defeatist as it sounds, I’m just happy we’re not getting embarrassed every weekend. Young team, too, so promising signs.

Whether he had control of the ball is irrelevant...if he is fouled its penalty. If anything if the ball isnt in Longs control and hes clattered into then its a debatable red card.

One of our fans was an embarrassment to us yesterday. When Watford scored the winner he just stamped on his seat repeatedly smashing it to pieces.
Seriously, what is the point?

I can't remember how bad game was so wanted to watch highlights
Watched in bar (on hol) kick off was 16 hours after my first beer

Blimey, I never realised Kasper Schmeichel was 30 years old. He’s always seemed a young lad lol.
Soldato
nice finish
